Just received a set. What's the trick for getting the mirror caps off? Have watched several videos, and they all show prying in a different spot. The service manual shows removing the mirror glass to access the clips? Help?

as in the powerfuluk video...pry off on the outter top side of the cover..be careful cos they do fly off... ... - .- -.

nice job Andy....also what you have to remember is that this prolonged spell of good weather is un-usual and when we get our normal dull winter weather these lights will show up even more..

Nearly into July and still no change Stan...

i did say dull winter weather Craig....as you say its nearly July and i'm making an educated guess that this is still summer..  ... - .- -.

I would definitely recommend using a plastic trim removal tool and follow the instructions as per Stan's recommendation (the powerfuluk video)  SDV8 AB MY 2019

When I did my driving test you had to give hand signals. Initially the only mechanical/light signal which was legal was the semaphore arm type direction indicator.

Flashing indicators? Smacks of extraterrestrials!

My L405 has cornering lights - not sure whether you can turn them off, but nothing obvious on the car menus...

AFAIK indicators must flash in unison - unless of course the C & U Regs have been changed to suit the use of sequential indicators & auxiliary lights used singly such as those annoying cornering lights for cars with rubbish headlamps &/or drivers that need a trip to Specsavers.

Audi have been using dynamic indicators since around 2013 so i'm surprised that you being a yorkie muncher you havnt noticed them sooner...

and cornering lights have been used the 1960's...  ... - .- -.

I've never really fancied the sweeping indicators on mirrors (and you have to buy them). But obviously my car does have cornering lights and despite initially not liking them I wouldn't be without them now as they do light up hedgerows and ditches at night which my forward pointing headlights miss. I know some people don't like them but I'm pretty sure they don't infringe any regulations, if they did thousands of cars would fail the MOT Geoff
